Daily Yellowstone journal., 1887-10-14

The scheme has been actually carried
into effect in New York. so far as some
of the great apartment houses are con-
cerned. In them there is one kitchen for
many families, and il is presided over by
a high priced cook, such a man ms only
the richest single families are able to epi-
ploy. Provisions are bought wholesale,
and there is a variety in the fare not pos
sible in an ordinary household with its
own kitchen. The housemaids are also
supplied by the manager, in whose pay
and under whose discipline they are, and
the establishment furnishes, besides, me-
chanics and porters for the common con-
v~enience. Therefore, a family may OBJ
tain cookery and service which only the
very rich are able TO ecure in another
than a cooperative household.
Yet people who have lived in such
apartment houses have often become dis
satisfied with them. The cookery Is res
taurant cookery, and something Of the
character II the home is lost. Life istoo
easy, and women may sigh for the occu-
pations with which the old fashioned
household provided them. But the Lon
don writer is correct in his provision
when he says that something like asso-
ciated homes is clearly indicated for the
future New York Sun.

Pure Air at z

The season Of the year is approaching
in which doors and windows are usually
closed, and the matter of pure air be-
comes n of serious importance. During
the day, the air of living rooms is pretty
certain to he changed NOSE or less by the
frequent opening of outside doors. During
the night. however. not infrequently all
outside openings are tightly closed, and
the occupants Of sleeping rooms might as
well place themselves for the eight or
ten sleeping hours of night in an air
tight box.
In the morning, persons who thus de-
prive themselves of life giving oxygen,
the great necessity Of life, awake unre-
freshed and dispirited, languid. pale and
weak. with headache, giddiness, no
appetite, and many other symptoms of
foul air poisoning, to which the system
has been subjected. This accounts for a
very large part Of the colds and physical
wretchedness. of which a good many
complain and which is ordinarily ascrlbed
to the change Of season. The system Is
filled with impurities as a result III de-
ficient oxygenation Of the blood, and SO

ceptible 10 all causes Of vital disturbance.

A Metropolis OF south America.


Nature never intended there should be

enterprise of the Chillanos. aided by
English and German capital, has built

headquarters there. The harbor is
spacious, its surroundings picturesque,

protected, and in midwinter. when
''northers' prevail, vessels are often
driven from their anchorage and COM

dashed upon the. rocks ON which the city
stands. A breakwater built across the
entrance to the harbor might give ample
protection. but the sea is 50 deep-more
than 200 fathoms-that such a work Is
deemed impracticable. In the bay,
drawn up in lines, like men of war ready
for review, are hundreds of crafts. bear
ing the flags Of almost every nation ON
the earth except our own.
The foreign trade is controlled by
Englishmen, all commercial transactions
are rendered in pounds sterling, the
English language is spoken on the streets
and in the shops, an English newspaper is
published, and 10 a stranger the city
seems like one Of her majcsty's colonies.
There is a strong prejudice against the
